The answer is 5(3)^x because tripling something means the base must be 3, which leaves the 5 to be the principal value.

Answer:

Follows are the solution to this question:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

s_1 = 21 \ \  t_1 = 1\\\\s_2 = 59 \ \ t_2 = 2\\\\s_3 = 141 \ \  t_3 = 4

All points are on the graph including its quadratic function, in order to install their coordinates to values of x and y with the following values:

y= ax^2 + bx + c\\\\21=a+b+c      Inserting the coordinates of the first point

y= ax^2 + bx + c\\\\59 =4a+2b+c              Inserting the coordinates of the second point

y= ax^2 + bx + c\\\\141=16a+4b+c       Inserting the coordinates of the third point

Synthetic division for x^2+10x+21/x+3
asambeis [7]
X^2+10x+21/x+3?  If you meant (<span>x^2+10x+21)/(x+3), please note that those parentheses are essential.

If you wish to divide </span><span>x^2+10x+21 by (x+3) using synth. div., use the divisor -3:
 
                                        _______________
                                   -3 /    1      10      21  
                                                     -3      -21
                                         -----------------------
                                              1       7        0

Since the remainder is 0, (x+3) is a divisor of </span><span>x^2+10x+21, and the other factor is (1x + 7).</span><span>
